Another fun Addams Family game!
User Rating: 6 | The Addams Family SNES
"The Addams Family" is a fun 2D platformer that is worth a play if you see it for cheap somewhere. The plot loosely follows the film it was based on. You control Gomez Addams, and travel around the Addams mansion saving the rest of the family from various creatures in order to access the vault before the Addams Family riches are stolen, or something along those lines. The graphics and locations are fairly simple but fun, and the music is quite good and suitable for the game. The game is not too difficult, but provides a slight challenge so it does not get boring. The controls are simple and enemies are defeated by simple jumps to their heads, but also weapons can be found in the form of a sword which can be thrust at the enemies or golf balls which can be thrown from a distance. However, sometimes while platform jumping the character can skid around causing you to fall down holes and into spikes etc.
Overview
Graphics - Simple but suitable
Sound - Good, fun, fitting music (including the famous Addams Family theme)
Gameplay - Easy controls, although skidding is a slight problem.
Lastability - Shouldn't take too long to finish, and uncertain as to whether it has any replay value.
